Commercial Passenger Lift Solutions
We are experts in designing and installing a wide range of passenger lifts for commercial spaces. Our platform lift designs include passenger lifts, goods lifts, and stair lifts, and we carry out many bespoke lift installations across the UK. But what is the definition of a passenger lift?
What is a Passenger Lift?
A passenger lift is a type of lift that is designed to take passengers up and down a vertical lift shaft. Cabin and shaft sizes can vary in a passenger lift, but they are usually completely enclosed. Possible lifting mechanisms for a passenger lift include pneumatic, traction and hydraulic lifting methods. At Gartec, the majority of our lift models use hydraulics to raise and lower the cabin.
Commercial lifts and escalators that are designed to carry passengers are subject to the public health and safety standards set by the Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998 (LOLER), which covers all kinds of lifting equipment.
As, in most cases, commercial passenger lifts are also considered a type of work equipment, the standards required by LOLER also interact with the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations (PUWER).
LOLER and PUWER regulations are enforced by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE), an official UK government body.

Passenger Lift Safety Features
Within the diverse range of passenger lifts we provide you can find many simple, smart and effective safety features. Safety features found on our passenger platform lifts include:
- Safety edges, which stop the lift when pressed
- Emergency stop buttons, which also instantly stop the lift
- Battery backup power, which is supplied as standard on every Gartec lift
- Key locking functionality, either to landing doors or the lift platform
- Intercom and auto dialers that connect to preset numbers, so passengers can ask for help in an emergency
Passenger lifts need safety features much more than a lift used exclusively for goods, or stair lifts that are not fully enclosed. Other essential safety features include sturdy and robust frames.
